If you had a Time Machine what would you do with it?

Me I think I would go back first to the whole Jesus thing and kill Mary so we would not have to deal with all the pesky bible bullshit or Christens for that matter.

Then some gambling, Then maybe retire in the Old West and have a nice whore house & Saloon.

 

I'd go back in time and give the Germans and Japs crucial information about where our troops would be. Or maybe I'd go a little farther back and chat it up with Tesla, or Jesus and find out who that guy really was and what he was really talking about. Hmmm.. I think it'd be awesome to show up in South America a couple hundred years before the Spaniards did, and pretend to be Quetzcoatl myself. Live it up and get all the beautiful women. Teach them about guns and this grand conspiracy I'm talking about, so they could really fuck those Spaniards up before they get here. That'd be sweet.

 

I think I would go back and not read this post.

 

Zing!


I like paradoxes, so I'd go back in time and destroy the time machine.

However, I think time travel is possible, which means that someday in the future, its already been invented. Which means we're living in what could be a reality shaped by both past and future.

Glaben.

 

Then I would go back and kill the future you, Make you read the thread and kill the past you so you could not post the above.

 

But wait then that means I would have no reason to come back to kill the future you if I killed the past you if you never posted the above. God time travel is so confusing.

 

Ok, now I am really confused too, you are going to go back and kill the future me, or go forward and kill the past me?

Okay, I have one,

I'll go back read the post and keep my mouth shut so you dont kill the future me- In the past.

 

But then that would make it where I have to kill 3 of you, Because you already went back to tell your past self not to read the post. Which I went back to kill your future self telling your past self not to read it. Then I made your past self read it then I killed him. Now I have to kill your future future self for seeing me kill your other too selfs. Oh my head hurts.

 

You guys are assuming a universe. The time travel paradox changes completely in the concept of a multi-verse.

 

I believe that time travel is possible too. As a matter of fact, I think that it probably is not very difficult, we just don't know how yet.

If I could go back in time there are several things that I think would be really cool, assuming I could take a few modern inventions with me.

1. I would like to go back just a hundred years, before fish had ever seen an artificial lure, and just catch the heck out of huge bass all day.

2. I would go back to ancient Greece with a box full of battery powered "personal massagers." I have no doubt that the women would view me as a messenger of the Gods, and their would be statues erected in my honor.

3. I would love to travel back a few thousand years and visit with Shem. (Shemites = Semites) He was the son of Noah, and was probably the last person alive who saw the world both before and after the flood.

4. I would like to go to 1050 BC and spend a week with King David. Why you ask? Well, he was a mass murderer, probably a serial killer. He had lots of hot women hanging all over him. He mutilated the corpses of the people he killed, and thought it was a good thing. He wrote over 150 songs, played the harp and lyre, danced naked, and drank like an Irishman. He also had severe depression, obvious mania, hallucinated, and probably died in the deliriums of syphillis. Despite all of this, God elevated David as an example, and called him "a man according to my own heart". I really want to talk to David.

5. Lastly, I would travel back tothe time before fire was used by man, and flick a lighter in front of a few cave men. Just to see the look on their faces, you know.

Ok just kill me and get it over with. I think I have morned the future me long enough. If this carries on I may have to quit my job. But then if the future me comes back, I can put him to work to take care of my bills and shit.

 

I'd go back in time and kill diogenes's philosophy teacher.

 

barry, i think you have the most thought about plan of all of us. I would go back and find some chicks that were looking to party and hit them with the circumsised penis. They would be like 'hey not turkey neck'.

 

Multi-verse isn't philosophy, it's quantum physics. Based on string theory, you'd have to kill all of the authors of books and magazines I've read on the subject. Starting with Bohr.

 

Ah, but isn't theoretical physics just an applied form of philosophy?

And I'd probably only have to kill Stephen Hawking, because he's the one who popularised quantum physics and astrophysics.

But then, if we ARE in a "Multi-verse", how many Stephen Hawkings would I have to kill?

 

can you just steal the batteries out of one of his wheel chairs? then maybe we could call him 'TIMMMMAYYYYYYYYYYYYY'

 

Cool. We don't even need a time machine to do that.

 

Multi-verse? Ok you have been watching to much Chronicals of Riddok no Vin for a month.

 

I think I would have to go back and have sex with Chesters Mom so anytime Chester posted I could say oh yeah? I did your mom.

 

At the moment our future selves invented the timemachine, time stopped. The total grasp of information made irt inevietable that even though alot got off killing future and passed others, the sum of knowlegde of anyone classified as self still constituted whole entities. And since any one stupd enough to off others would be classified as an offer off others ( objectively ) the whole idea off offing became off limit. Facing remorse through all those multiverses. Thus we became G-d and now we dream of inocent ignorance. The only escape open to gods as us
